Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

View from the #Brooklyn side but not the Brooklyn Bridge. There are 4 bridges connecting to Manhattan from the eastern side. Name the other 3 (this is one of them).

At our house mom called them “nut tossies” (with walnuts). Others call them pecan tassies or mini pecan pies, depending on the filling. Time consuming to make but happy to continue the holiday tradition.

Bought myself a #Christmas treat. I will inevitably get a “We thought you’d like this tea” gift… usually some esoteric fruit flavored or “holiday spice” tea blend.

I like my #tea like I like my #whiskey, neat, unadulterated.
And you?

I was small as a blade of grass,
You stepped away from me.
I grew bigger, touching sky,
You built around me.
I will be here,
When you are gone

Probably the best Pad Thai in Bangkok. They make about 300 servings of Pad Thai daily. Thanks to a Netflix food documentary for the tip.
